The Naughty Girl Scout

August 3rd 2006 10:00
Cookiesandjar, by Holder
from www.morguefile.com


Ladies and gentlemen, it is time to look past the friendly smiles, the bouncy pig tails and the offer of chocolate chip cookies because these physical manifestations of wholesomeness and purity may not be so wonderful after all...


Teresa Wickline, leader of Troop 225 in central Ohio has finally tainted the perfect reputation of the Girl Scouts. She is currently facing a prison sentence of up to 18 months. What exactly did this naughty scout do?

After her troop raised over $5000 in cookie sales and fundraising, she decided to pocket that money for herself and spend it on personal bits and pieces. Parents noticed that cheques were bouncing and that there was only $8 in the account. So they notified police and before you knew it, this scout was no longer her overly enthusiastic, chirpy self.

She has been charged with felony theft and if convicted, she will have to pay back the money and possibly spend a few months behind bars.

How could she do it? That’s what I want to know. She was given access to the funds because both the girls and the community trusted her. It is a part of the leadership training program to teach volunteers how to deal with money that is raised through the various girl scout activities.

Those poor girls probably spent hours annoying the daylights out of the rest of society so they could raise a few bucks in exchange for a dried up cookie. And then their leader robs them of all their hard work!


Shame on you, what sort of example are you setting for all the other smiley faced, rosey-cheeked, cookie-selling munchkins?

I agree! Shame on her. I hope the girls are not deterred from continuing their good work because of her. they should make an example of her and send her to prison to stop other volunteers and scouts from doing the same!
